June CPP and OAS Payouts: Why You Might Get More in July 2025

For retired citizens and seniors in Canada, the CPP and OAS payments that come every month are an important part of their lives. These government schemes not only provide financial support but also help in balancing the cost of living. June 2025 is a month when a large number of citizens are going to receive funds under both these payment programs. Also, an increase in OAS payment has also been confirmed from July 2025, which is a relief step keeping in mind the ever-increasing inflation.

Exact date of CPP and OAS payment: When will the money come to your account?

People who get the benefit of CPP (Canada Pension Plan) or OAS (Old Age Security) are expected to receive their payment this time on Thursday, June 26, 2025. According to Service Canada, if you have opted for direct deposit, this amount will be sent directly to your bank account. Those who still receive payment by check may get a slight delay in payment through the mail. This date is important for thousands of Canadians who plan their monthly expenses based on these payments.

One of the special features of the CPP and OAS payment system is that it is extremely regular and timely. Due to the years of reliability of Service Canada, citizens rarely face delays in payment. But if the payment does not come due to any technical reason, the government has advised waiting 10 business days, after which the concerned department can be contacted.

OAS increase from July 2025: Why and how much?

OAS payment is received by all citizens who are 65 years of age or older. The special thing about this scheme is that the payment rates are reviewed every three months—in January, April, July and October. This review is based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) to ensure that the financial condition of senior citizens remains secure despite rising inflation.

Starting July 2025, according to the CRA (Canada Revenue Agency), OAS payments will increase by 1%. This increase is based on the 2.3% annual inflation between July 2024 and July 2025. That is, citizens receiving OAS will get slightly more payment during the July-September quarter. The special thing is that even if inflation decreases, there is no reduction in OAS payments—this policy protects senior citizens from financial instability.

CPP payment: Who will get it and how much?

CPP payments are for those who have contributed to this scheme while working in Canada. If you have contributed to CPP at least once and you are 60 years of age or older, you may be eligible. The amount of your monthly CPP pension depends on

• How long you contributed.
• How much income you earned.
• At what age did you start taking pension?

In 2025, if someone begins collecting a CPP pension at age 65, they can receive a maximum of $1,364.60 per month. The average CPP payment in July 2024 was $815 per month. This figure may vary depending on your years of work and contributions. If you want to know how much you will receive, you can log into your My Service Canada Account to get an estimate.

OAS eligibility and registration process: Do you have to do anything?

Old Age Security (OAS) is a plan that most citizens are automatically enrolled in after age 65, provided the government has all of your information. If your information is incomplete, you will receive a letter from Service Canada telling you whether or not you need to apply in person.

OAS is a non-contribution-based plan, meaning you do not have to make any financial contributions to it while working. This scheme is primarily based on the period of residence and citizenship. It is also worth noting that the amount of OAS depends on your period of residence, citizenship status and other eligibility criteria.
